To avoid continually having to bump the initrd load address to account for larger kernel images, put the initrd halfway through RAM. This allows large kernels on new boards with lots of RAM to work OK, without breaking existing usecases for boards with only 32MB of RAM. Note that this change fixes in passing a bug where we were passing an overly large max_size to load_image_targphys() for the initrd, which meant that we wouldn't correctly refuse to load an enormous initrd that didn't actually fit into RAM.
